The big day has come. This Saturday, April 6, 2024, José Luis Martínez Almeida and Teresa Urquijo say 'yes, I want' ten months after confirming their relationship in public. It was last January when the couple announced their engagement, which will put the finishing touch on today's day. The ceremony will begin at 12:00 this Saturday, and will take place in the Parish of the Sacred Heart and San Francisco de Borja, also called the Jesuits of Serrano church.
As revealed this week, the wedding will have more than 500 high-level guests and the banquet will cost around 90,000 euros. The wedding will be celebrated in style, and the banquet will take place in Colmenar Viejo, on her family farm, where the couple's loved ones will travel, including several well-known faces.
Among the guests who have arrived at the temple, there are several recognized faces in the politics of our country, especially belonging to the Popular Party, to which the groom belongs. Among them, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, José María Aznar and the presidents of Aragón and Murcia, Jorge Azcón and Fernando López Miras, respectively.
The wedding was also attended by family and friends of the couple, as well as members of the Spanish aristocracy who did not want to miss the couple's big day.
It was in early 2023 when the couple met for the first time. It was during the FLECHA contemporary art fair, as reported by the Look portal. So, it was she who approached Almeida. After several meetings at different events, she was encouraged to ask him for a first date, which finally took place on May 12. Then, there was a political campaign, so the mayor wanted to wait until it was over to make the relationship public.
Finally, in June 2023, José Luis Martínez-Almeida officially presented Teresa Urquijo as his partner, and he did so by going accompanied by her to Las Ventas, in the event that ends the San Isidro festivities. From then on, their relationship grew by leaps and bounds, until they became engaged and married. "Once they asked me about sentimental questions. I answered that neither rush nor resign, it is obvious that I have not rushed, but I was almost resigned. Until she appeared. And Teresa told me yes," the mayor wrote on his Instagram profile , revealing their engagement last January. Today they both pass through the altar.
